Mission To Remarry Chapter 172 The cars in the front started moving again, so Roxanne lifted her leg from the brakes and set her eyes on the road.
Everything felt even more ironic when she recalled Lucianâs expression. âArenât you engaged to Ms.
Pearson? Donât you feel that itâs inappropriate to be so close to me because of Essie?â
Besides, he doesnât even know who Essieâs biological mother is.
The more she dwelled on the matter, the more outrageous she thought he was.
How dare he nag me?
Lucian didnât expect her to bring Estella up, so he looked a little conflicted and replied ambiguously, âThatâs not the same thing.â
After all, Estella was her daughter.
She sneered, âWhatâs different? Besides, we have no other connection other than Essie, and weâre not even friends. Itâs my right to decide who I wish to be friends with. It has nothing to do with you. Donât you think youâre being a little too controlling?â
As soon as she said that, the temperature in the car dropped.
Lucianâs expression darkened as he stared into the distance. After that, he didnât say anything else during the entire trip.
Similarly, Roxanne pursed her lips tightly, and her mind was all over the place while she had the same expression on her face as Lucian.
Both of them stayed silent for the rest of their journey Turlan dedit toll her where he wanted to go, so she drove back to her Want to Jano way anything her opened the artxan xol Seconds later, Lucian got out of the passenger seat too.
âSince Essieâs condition is basically stabilized now, itâs not very appropriate for her to keep staying here. Mr. Farwell, if itâs convenient for you, you should bring her back.â Roxanne had considered it throughout the journey Despite her reluctance to be separated from Estella, Roxanne made that decision in the end.
She was a little tired of the fact that Lucian would go to her house once every few days because Estella was staying with her.
Iâve told him clearly from the beginning when we first met that weâre already strangers, but lately, he kept showing up in front of me and even did that during Old Mr. Queenâs birthday banquet. Iâm really confused. Whatâs our relationship right now, anyway? Besides, itâs obvious that Archie and Benny, especially Benny, have gotten closer to him.
Benny had already taken a liking to him at the beginning. Moreover, the last two times Lucian gave Benny and Archie gifts made them even more fond of him. As such, Roxanne was afraid that Benny would tell Lucian everything about her one day.
With Lucianâs intelligence, he would definitely find out that Archie and Benny were his when the time came.
Roxanne didnât even dare to think about what would happen after that.
There was still no response from Lucian after some time, so she added, âBesides, it seems that Mrs.
Farwell doesnât want Essie to stay with meâ¦â
She didnât know why, but she felt that Lucian was staring at her with a strange look in his eyes.
Unbidden, she stopped talking.
Lucian gave Roxanne one last glance before he walked away without saying anything Sering his disappearing silhouette, she opened her mouth. Instead of srying anyıhing.

Archie, Benny, and Estella pounced on her happily Roxanne squatted down out of habit, spread her arms, and the three of them jumped in for a hug.
As Roxanne felt the warmth in her arms and took in the sweet scent of the three children, her heart melted instantly. She tightened her hug and pulled thern closer to her as her worries disappeared.
